Hi Kenney, I tried the whole day, in repeating the same from my windows machine using, an absolute path and to create a directory in the linux machine. I was unsuccessful.
I tried with in stalling FTP clients on my windows machine, Then adding the following jars in the Project.xml dependencies after having placed them in my local repository NetComponents.jar commons-net-1.3.0.jar jakarta-oro-2.0.8.jar Still I don't seem to get the FTP mkdir working. Please guide me to make this work.

The ant manual is wrong - the name should be 'default home directory'. At least, if you log in as a normal user. Then you can wander all over the entire filesystem. If you use an anonymous account, you can only see a part of the filesystem. If you'd try this: <ant:ftp action="mkdir" server="${maven.remote.machine}" userid="${maven.remote.user}" password="${maven.remote.password}" remotedir="/tmp/TEST" /> then the directory /tmp/TEST should be created. > What should be the problem? My guess is that you work on a windows machine, and ${maven.build.dir} is something like C:\Documents\ And\ Settings\YourUserName\Desktop\Work\YourProject which is not a valid unix path. You should have a path like /path/to/directory/you/want/to/create for an absolute path, or directory/in/your/home/directory . Usually the ftp task is used for publishing websites and artifacts. (see maven-jar-plugin et.al.) You can test this all out using <echo>${maven.build.dir}</echo> and trying to create that directory by hand using the windows ftp client. But that's probably not the directory you want to create. O, and about your signature: ofcourse, I understand it's something you cannot change - just wanted to point out that that policy makes no sense when you send mail to an archived list ;) Greetings, Kenney Westerhof > > Thanks in advance, > Jayaram > > -----Original Message----- > From: Kenney Westerhof [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 6:15 PM > To: Maven Users List > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: ANT FTP with Maven > > On Wed, 30 Mar 2005, GOKULAM Jayaram wrote: > > Hi, > > first of all: you might consider leaving the confidentiality footer out, > since this email is addressed to a list, not a person, and is readable > by the whole world :) > > As you can read in http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/ftp.html > nested fileset attributes are ignored in the ftp task.
